Leon Balogun will remain at Rangers for one more season after signing a new one-year contract.
Balogun was set to become a free agent this summer but has now his future sorted out.
The Nigerian won over manager Philippe Clement with his performances this season.
Earlier this month, the Rangers boss hinted that he would look to keep Balogun at the club.
He said back in early May: “Leon is somebody who showed every day the right mentality, the right passion for the club.
“So that can be something that is on the table at the end of the season also.
“But it is the end of the season that we can make a really good evaluation about everything and everybody.
“It’s going to be a very interesting period in that way for us to make the right decisions for next season also.
“To see how everybody trains, plays, behaves, works, shows resilience in the next couple of weeks because you want to be successful with this club so we need the right players in the building.”
Balogun returned for a second Rangers spell last summer. READ ALSO:
